You're conflating two separate issues. File > Permissions relates to
Information Rights Management, another whizz-bang (and doomed) technology
aimed to control the distribution of documents. The 'restrictions' relate to
distribution.
Password-protection via Tools > Options > Security aims to control the
opening and editing of the document.
Ultimately they aim at the same thing, but they are, none the less, two
distinct and unrelated systems. (If either worked, the other would be more
or less redundant, but in reality it's just heaping pelion upon an ossa of
cowdung.)

I got a Word 2003 document where the menu File->Permissions show a check at
"Unrestricted access"
but is at the same time "password protected"?
From my point of view a password protected file cannot be "Unrestricted".
It is restricted.
